WW2 at Wallington Hall

Posted by Wendy Errington on Oct 2, 11 08:01 PM in Bloggers

So I started work full time in September and thought that would be the end of volunteering at Wallington - but as they say "never say never again!" The hall had pulled me back.

I helped out with some of the wartime activities at Wallington the other weekend - Glenn Miller played out; the sun shone; jeeps and soldiers were shining and children were making gas mask boxes. A great family fun day. A spitfire simulator kept children and dads intrigued. Whilst everyone was surprised to hear about the evacuees at Wallington and a 1940s wedding expert gave a fascinating insight into traditions of old.
